"I'm going to rewrite this soon to include some life events" Here's the dealeo, I started doing Wood Sculptures about 15 years ago to try and keep myself busy after I stopped drinking and smoking. About 5 years into it I got throat and neck Cancer. I say this because before I had the Cancer I had not written or sung Music. Looking to clean up an open space in late 2007 and 2008 ( http://openspacedocumentary.blogspot.com/) i became closer to some of the local wild life, I bonded with a Hawk and a Baby duck and started to write songs, I forced myself to sing when I could, I have over three hundred songs now, some good, some not so good, but I am getting better at writing, singing, mixing and arranging.

Album "Epic Shine" "Walk Away" before that was"Angel Woman" along with some old remakes"Sing Back In time2011" and "Its The Spirit In The Dance" along with over one hundred of my songs and other Albums available for Sale all streaming at http://www.reverbnation.com/kevinlajiness

I write from a position of emotion and honesty, usually tell a story about love, life, relationships, nature, adventure, history, spirituality,philosophy etc. My Art and Music style is Naive, I beat mix looped instruments as accompaniments but the melodies don't necessarily match, but I put a great deal of thought into them and try and bring something epic to bear in mind, yet some of my songs are ballads and relaxing songs of love .

These books represent a ton of work , good bad or indifferent. I apologize ahead of time for typo's English and spelling, i suck at all of that, but it's about the music and lyrics and that's what really matter but I gave it my best.

with some links to the songs , some I have taken down, (I am going to try and put them all back up for nostalgia and to show my progress from Throat and neck Cancer), but the lyrics are all there

I have many slideshows/Videos of nature and Open Space pic's over the years that I put to my music on YouTube-kevinlajiness and saved in Google + or Picasa.

I grew up on Lake
Erie Lagoons, my grandfather had a bate shop. Fishing and hunting was big on my
fathers side no doubted stemmed from the fact that his ancestors were “Woods
Runners” or “coureurs des bois”. As long as I can remember I’ve had a love for
trees, nature and the environment, I attribute that, and the spiritual connection
I have with mother earth, to the connection my ancestors had with the
Indigenous peoples of the Americas. Most if not all of them are child
friendly. I started writing my early songs while working on a open space for a
year, where I bonded with a hawk and a duck.

Allot of what I draw from comes from life’s experience and what’s in my heart, what I believe is a responsibility to carry the messages of or ancestors on what is right, to come to a conclusion we are all part of something bigger than ourselves and that we pass that on to our children in story and song,but remember i am an artist I write story and rhyme, lesson and fable, I do not try to be politically correct.even though i don't use cuss words other that Hell and dam, I don't have a problem with artist that do,to each there own, I believe things evolve for a reason, hey it got someone out of the slums, by the way the baby duck that followed me home got to big and i gave her to a zoo keeper, she flew back to his house from the zoo and they raised her, she has since had her own baby's

“This could of been John Pitts Bonds uncle, will 1769, he would of been just under 1yrs old his grand father Peter Bond, Susanna’s 1st Husband Died abt 1762. She married a John Pitts in 1766, 3 days before John Pitts Bonds Father Married His Mother. So the baby (John Pitts Bond) was probably named after his new step grandfather. i also think John Pitts was this Peters, (Susanna’s son’s) Father in Law. Was that a Mouth full.” (Kevin Lajiness)
